I'm glad I could be of some help. I just like you got my inspiration from PICs on this forum. Dan Pierce is a notorius for his enabling of others here on this forum.

Very nice Ken

Just wondering if you had any idea why Rolex decided to produce the full YG Daytona with YG bracelet with the bezel without the track and little arrows? Just seems a little strange for them to produce the rest of the gold range i.e. WG and RG with the little arrows and not the YG.....

But looks superb all the same Enjoy... as I'm sure all that gold is brightening up your day

Steve- I personally think they kept this the way they did as this is the one in the gold collection that truly has a retro look to it. That is just my take though. To me is a modern watch with old school look to it. Thanks!!

PS--Also--I like it better this way vs. arrows!

I agree with you on the looks Ken, and always nice to have the one they thought about and did something different with

Dots & Arrows
Hey Guys,

My understanding is that it is done for differentiation to the non-WIS

Dots on stainless vs Arrows on WG

YG is obviously not stainless so no Arrows needed

RG and YG (in theory, though I know it's clear to us) could be mixed up hence

Arrows on RG to differentiate from dots on YG

Now I'm off to enjoy my last few hours in paradise s HAGD all!
